BluePay Processing Receives Praise from Mail Order and Telephone Order Customers. Gregory Bair

BluePay offers an advanced and proven approach to their MOTO clients via their Interactive Voice Response system (IVR). BluePay’s IVR with voice activated technology increases convenience, security and speed for merchants thereby improving customer service, allowing customers to make payments via touchtone phone, reducing cost to the merchant, all in a real-time and secure payment system. And with BluePay’s batch processing, the MOTO merchant can compile mail orders into a batch and submit them together.

Detailed MOTO pricing information is found below, in Rates, Fees, and Pricing.

BluePay offers tremendous customer service.  One feature that I especially liked was their Live Chat function.  When I used it, a real person came online without almost no wait on my end.  The representative asked me questions to make me think and equally important the rep gave very clear answers to my questions.  The Live Chat function also allowed me to get a transcript of our chatting sent to my email address.  It was very efficient.  So, I was impressed, by the technology, by how fast the representative came online to help me, and with the quality of the answers.

• When you have a question, you can call in toll-free Monday through Friday, 7:30 am to 6:00 pm, Central Standard Time.
• Or, you can submit a question on their web site and they promise to get back to you within one business day.
• They also had a set of some fifteen Frequently Asked Questions. The answers were very easy to read and they made sense to me.
• Live Chat: 24/7
